Private equity investment in long-term care: The case of Ireland

O’Neill, Nicholas and Julien Mercille

Health Policy, 2025, vol. 159, issue C

Abstract: Private equity (PE) firms are key actors in the financialisation of health care systems. Yet, research rarely focuses directly on these firms and related private for-profit actors involved in financialisation. Moreover, existing work mostly concerns the United States, while several key health care sectors remain under-researched.
